How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Queen Anne

A dry touch is not a dry material reading. The technician compares affected surfaces with dry references before equipment comes out.

1. Remove standing water

   A technician documents the standing water and extracts it before setting the drying plan.

2. Map wet materials

   A room by room moisture map directs equipment toward the true wet footprint.

3. Open trapped areas

   Insulation holding sprinkler water may need removal before framing can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings show when salvageable surfaces no longer need drying equipment.
